Bold in spice, the aperitif oozes with beautiful, golden ginger sediment. Perfect harmony is created with sweetness from jaggery (an unrefined, earthy sugar used across Asia and South America), sourness from lime and salinity from black salt (kala namak). Minor roles are played by cardamom, chaat and orange peel.
Delicious when drunk on its own, or when paired with smoky flavours, salted pineapple, citrus gins and rich dark spirits.
Weaving in ingredients from his Indian heritage, Kaveri’s founder, Varun, created the aperitif out of a passion to rediscover real ginger. Unadulterated. Unrefined. Earthy. Spicy. The root of the word “ginger” is from the Sanskrit “sringavera” and the people of India treasured ginger for millennia for its soothing properties. As it spread out of the East, ginger became entrenched into global food culture for good reason.
From roadside ginger and sugar cane juice in Jamaica to ginger tea in China, from Vietnam to Peru, real ginger is loved across the world. Kaveri celebrates that connection, the memories and the happiness of authentic people and cuisines meeting together.
